Chapter 217: Damn it, I'll explode with you all!

"I'm sorry!!!"

Upon realizing that everyone was looking at him, Jiang Mingzhi's lips moved; he wanted to find a place to crawl into.

But he saw the youth's approving gaze again, and in the end, he did not explain, but instead continued to shout loudly:

"I'm sorry!!!"

Pang Lixing:???

What on earth?

"You..."

Looking at Jiang Mingzhi in disbelief, Pang Lixing felt his worldview had been impacted once again.

Pang Lixing had always thought quite highly of Jiang Mingzhi.

Pang Lixing believed that Jiang Mingzhi was like him—a heaven-gifted talent who refused to follow the crowd and possessed his own character and opinions.

He was one of the people he most wanted to win over.

But now, now...

This candidate he thought most highly of had actually... made such an incomprehensible move?

What happened?

What on earth happened!?

Why did he suddenly apologize?

Jiang Mingzhi didn't care what Pang Lixing was thinking right now; he nervously watched the seemingly harmless youth beside him.

And being stared at like this, Ren Yidao didn't torment him any further, smiling:

"Oh my, we meet again; we are truly fated."

"Don't be so nervous, what happened before is all in the past."

Toward this sensible and discerning person, Ren Yidao gave high praise.

Not bad, not bad.

This young man has talent.

He is a good sprout.

However, it is still a bit of a pity!

You child, if only you were a bit more arrogant.

Before, it was just you alone, but now that you have your elders by your side, shouldn't you be bullying others by relying on their power?

Shouldn't you be thinking about taking revenge on me?

You child, you still lack the hot-bloodedness a young person should have.

Withdrawing his regretful gaze, Ren Yidao looked again at the bewildered Pang Lixing.

Come on!

I can't count on him anymore, so now I'm just waiting for you to give me a chance.

Come!

Don't be polite!

Humiliate me fiercely!

Ren Yidao's eager gaze deeply stimulated Pang Lixing's heart.

Actually, even though the scene before him was filled with strangeness everywhere, he still couldn't help but want to open his mouth and curse.

"You..."

The other party's eager gaze was simply too creepy, and coupled with the fact that there were two men stripping and wrestling behind him, Pang Lixing couldn't help but have some bad associations...

Don't look at me with that kind of gaze!!!

And just before he was about to suffer a Broken Defense, Chu Yiping, who had remained silent until now, finally spoke.

"This Excellency, you are the person Prince Jiang encountered before, right?"

Although Chu Yiping did not like this malicious Pang Lixing in his heart, his status made it impossible for him to retreat at this time.

Blocking Pang Lixing behind him, he narrowed his eyes and watched the youth opposite him, fully prepared for battle.

"Chu is here to thank you for your care earlier."

But Ren Yidao acted as if he couldn't hear the hidden meaning in the other party's words, waving his hand shyly and saying magnanimously:

"Hm? Care? Oh my, it's a small matter, a small matter; it was just a lift of the hand, you don't need to be so polite."

"Children, you know, they always like to run around when they are out, so it's inevitable they will encounter all kinds of Danger Star."

Looking at Chu Yiping's stiff expression, he said with a smile:

"Brother Chu must put in more effort; don't be kept in the dark and played by the children."

"If something really happens, it will be too late for regrets."

Chu Yiping: "..."

If it were before yesterday, Chu Yiping would have snorted with disdain upon hearing this.

But now, thinking about how he had been kept in the dark for so long, he couldn't find any reason to refute it.

His face twitched, and Chu Yiping's aura involuntarily dropped quite a bit.

"This... has nothing to do with you."

"Hmm, that is true."

Ren Yidao nodded indifferently, then continued:

"However, this does have to do with me."

He pointed to the spot where he had just been sitting, gestured toward the few people lying peacefully on the ground, and asked with a serious face:

"Regarding your indulgence of their sneak attack on me, I wonder if Brother Chu can give Ren Yidao an explanation?"

Speaking of this matter, the expression on Chu Yiping's face became even uglier.

If one could say that Jiang Mingzhi's previous encounter with danger was due to a momentary lapse in vigilance, then at this moment, the miserable state of this group of Princes was something Chu Yiping could not shirk responsibility for at all.

Because the sneak attack on Ren Yidao was something he had tacitly approved of, or even indulged and encouraged.

Chu Yiping had only wanted to take the opportunity to disperse some of the pressure and let them vent the disgust in their Hearts, but he had not expected to provoke such a dangerous existence.

He had been careless.

Worried about encountering Danger Stars on the road, his nerves had been taut the entire way, and they had just relaxed upon arriving at Wentian.

If they encountered danger on the road, it could still be considered their own problem.

But if the people from the Eastern Wasteland suffered any mishaps in Wentian City, it could all be blamed on Beigan.

The Northern Qian Li Family would be more worried about their safety than anyone else and would not give the Eastern Wasteland any excuse to start a war.

However, this did not include the Eastern Wasteland group causing trouble; that would not be the Li Family's concern.

"……The Li Family."

Linking this to Jiang Mingzhi's previous encounter, a flash of realization crossed Chu Yiping's mind.

A show of force.

This youth was likely a show of force sent by the Li Family to intimidate them.

Otherwise, there was no reason for the other party to only make Jiang Mingzhi write a self-criticism, nor would he have set up such a disgusting scene on their only path in the middle of the night waiting for them.

Behind this, it was all calculation.

This was a deliberate lure to get them to make a move, so that the Li Family could then strike a blow at their group!

Having figured out the reason, Chu Yiping snorted coldly and said indifferently:

"The Li Family, what a fine calculation."

Ren Yidao:?

What the hell?

How did the Li Family get dragged into this?

To a certain extent, Chu Yiping had actually guessed the near-standard answer by accident.

Ren Yidao could indeed be considered half... more than half a member of the Li Family.

Seeing that the other party did not deny it, Chu Yiping snorted and issued a harsh threat:

"We'll count this as us falling into your hands this time, you Evil Dao! Don't get cocky! We'll see who's better when we meet again!"

Ren Yidao had originally planned to just let it go, but he got fired up upon hearing this!

Yo!

Isn't this just handing a pillow to someone who's sleepy!

"What?"

Hearing the term Evil Dao, Ren Yidao sprang up as a conditioned reflex and shouted angrily:

"You ambushed me, and you still call me an Evil Dao!!?"

"Do you have any sense of reason left!!?"

His harmless aura was swept away, and a terrifying aura erupted from Ren Yidao's body!

Hum—

Accompanied by a soft sound, the Merit Qi on Ren Yidao's body compressed rapidly, forming crystals that wrapped around him.

Merit Qi: Self-Destruct Special Attack Pro Version!

"Slanderous accusations!"

"Open your eyes and take a good look, I am a cultivator of Merit!!!"

Feeling the terrifying Merit Qi from the other party, Chu Yiping had not expected such a development and said with a stutter:

"Uh, I, I didn't say that..."

But Ren Yidao did not care; he pressed his advantage, his momentum not retreating in the slightest.

Damn it!

I'll blow myself up with you all!!!

Spent the whole day fussing over the computer, finally managed to get the old computer working to type.

Posting three chapters first, I'm going to grab a bite to eat, then I'll write one more chapter and post it.
